Definitions
- the invention concerns paralytic shellfish poison for use in a method of treatment of a human being or another mammal and a pharmaceutical composition comprising that paralytic shellfish poison.
- Microneurography technique has established the existence of dedicated slow-conducting unmyelinated C neurons which only transmit itch (and temperature changes) in response to histamine - thus disproving the notion that itch is merely a mild version of pain. These neurons, which represent only about 5% of the total, have also been shown to be selectively activated in chronic pruritic skin disease. Microneurography has also established that the contralateral transmission neurones which convey itch to the thalamus consist of an itch specific subclass of lamina 1 spinothalamic tract neurons, thus establishing that dedicated neurons transmit itch not only peripherally but also centrally.
- Pruritus can be classified pathophysiologically into 4 categories:
- Corticosteroids are not intrinsically antipruritic and are only effective in relieving pruritus occurring as a consequence of inflammatory changes in the skin.
- Narrow band ultraviolet B phototherapy (311 nanometres) is beneficial in generalised itching due to most causes, and is especially useful in pruritus of end-stage renal failure.
- Doxepin a tricyclic compound, is a non-specific inhibitor of post-synaptic re-uptake of adrenaline and noradrenaline and is a powerful antipruritic, possessing greater potency as an H1 antihistamine than any other available H1 antagonist as well as being widely used as an antidepressant. It should be prescribed in low dosage initially, and be used with extreme caution in patients with liver or cardiovascular disease. It should not be withdrawn abruptly or prescribed concurrently with other antidepressants. It is not contraindicated in the presence of renal failure and is thus very useful in these patients. It is metabolised via the liver cytochrome P450 3A pathway and therefore should not be administered concurrently with macrolide antibiotics or imidazole antifungals.
- Opioid antagonists including oral naltrexone, are effective in some patients, especially in patients with cholestatic itching. This class of drug is contraindicated in patients with severe liver disease, patients addicted to opioids and patients receiving opioid analgesia. Opioid antagonists seem to cause withdrawal symptoms and signs in patients with itching due to cholestasis and dosage should start low and be increased gradually to avoid this complication.
- Butorphanol a combined ⁇ -receptor antagonist and ⁇ - receptor agonist, administered as a nasal spray, has showed considerable promise in the management of intractable pruritus.
- Gabapentin a structural analogue of ⁇ -amino butyric acid and an anticonvulsant, has been advocated as a potent antipruritic and has received support from at least 1 double blind placebo-controlled trial in haemodialysis patients.
- Other drugs that can be tried include mirtazepine, a serotonin type 3 receptor antagonist, paroxetine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and thalidomide.
- SSRI selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor
- the sodium channel blocker lidocaine and other local anaesthetics have been reported to cause side effects including itching and/or local hypersensitivity reactions.
- Other Na channel blockers such as local Novocain has also been reported to cause allergic reactions including itching.
- lidocaine in the treatment of pruritus in patients with chronic cholestatic liver diseases.
- the lidocaine is administered intravenously.
- CN 1680382 A discloses the use of tetrodotoxin as antipruritic agent.
- the problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a further substance and a further pharmaceutical composition for use in a method of treatment of itching without a loss of sensitivity in an area innervated by nerves affected by the treatment in a human being or another mammal.
- a paralytic shellfish poison for use in a method of topical treatment of itching in a human being or another mammal.
- the PSP may also be a salt of saxitoxin or the tricyclic 3,4-propinoperhydropurine.
- the paralytic shellfish poison may be administered once, over a period of one to seven days, in multiple treatment cycles and/or in chronic treatment.
- the inventors of the present invention have recognized that the PSP according to the invention has an anti-itching effect that differs from the effect of other sodium channel blockers such as lidocaine.
- lidocaine sodium channel blockers
- none of the side effects of lidocaine and other non-PSP local anesthetics has been found for PSP. If itching is treated with lidocaine, sensitivity is lost in the area innervated by nerves affected by the treatment. This is not the case if itching is treated with PSP according to the invention in a concentration and an amount that is only sufficient for a reduction or elimination of itching but not sufficient to cause a loss in sensitivity. Such concentration and amount can easily be determined by testing different concentrations and amounts, e.g. by application to skin.
- the anti-itching effect of the PSP according to the invention is a complete new effect.
- WO 2011/098539 A1 discloses the same sodium channel blockers as have been recognized by the inventors to be useful for the treatment of itching.
- the sodium channel blockers disclosed in WO 2011/098539 A1 enhance sensitivity of the skin such that a reduced or lost superficial sensitivity or sense of touch is at least partly restored. Enhancing sensitivity would be expected to enhance itching. Therefore, it is very astonishing that these sensitivity enhancing substances can be used to reduce itching.
- the tricyclic 3,4-propinoperhydropurine may be one of the derivatives of saxitoxin or a gonyautoxin (hereinafter "GTX") according to formula I as set forth in the table below.
- the PSP according to the invention is in the form of its racemate, pure stereoisomer, especially enantiomer or diastereomer or in the form of a mixture of stereoisomers, especially enantiomers or diastereomers, in neutral form, in the form of an acid or base or in the form of a salt, especially a physiologically acceptable salt, or in the form of a solvate, especially a hydrate.
- the PSP according to the invention is saxitoxin, neosaxitoxin, descarbamoylsaxitoxin, or GTX, in particular GTX-1, GTX-2, GTX-3, GTX-4, or GTX-5, wherein the saxitoxin, neosaxitoxin, descarbamoylsaxitoxin, or GTX, in particular GTX-1, GTX-2, GTX-3, GTX-4, or GTX-5, is synthetically synthesized or isolated from a biological source, in particular from cyanobacteria, from dinoflagellates or from contaminated shellfish, especially shellfish contaminated with A. catenella.
- the saxitoxin, neosaxitoxin, descarbamoylsaxitoxin, or GTX may be used in an amount of 0.01 ⁇ g/day to 1000 ⁇ g/day, in particular 0.1 to 100 ⁇ g/day, especially 1 to 10 ⁇ g/day.
- the itching to be treated may be of pruritoceptive nature, of neurogenic nature, of neuropathic nature, of psychogenic nature, due to an inflammatory process, due to an insect bite, due to an inflammatory process, in particular an inflammatory process due to surgery or healing, due to infectious process, in particular an infectious process caused by a virus, bacteria, a fungus or prions, due to circulating pruritogens, due to a systemic pathology, in particular cholithiasis or acute or chronic renal insufficiency, due to any allergen exposure, due to tobacco exposure, in particular smokeless tobacco exposure, due to chemical exposure, or due to respiratory cause.

Description
- The invention concerns paralytic shellfish poison for use in a method of treatment of a human being or another mammal and a pharmaceutical composition comprising that paralytic shellfish poison.
- Itch is a principal symptom of skin disease and is an important skin manifestation of systemic disease. Microneurography technique has established the existence of dedicated slow-conducting unmyelinated C neurons which only transmit itch (and temperature changes) in response to histamine - thus disproving the notion that itch is merely a mild version of pain. These neurons, which represent only about 5% of the total, have also been shown to be selectively activated in chronic pruritic skin disease. Microneurography has also established that the contralateral transmission neurones which convey itch to the thalamus consist of an itch specific subclass of lamina 1 spinothalamic tract neurons, thus establishing that dedicated neurons transmit itch not only peripherally but also centrally.
- Pruritus can be classified pathophysiologically into 4 categories:
- pruritoceptive - generated in the skin usually by an inflammatory or other visible pathological process, e.g., scabies, urticaria,
- neurogenic - generated in the central nervous system in response to circulating pruritogens as in cholestasis or in response to intraspinal morphine,
- neuropathic - due to anatomical lesions of the central or peripheral nervous systems, e.g., nerve entrapment, tumours and
- psychogenic, including delusional parasitosis.
- For the treatment of pruritus antihistamines are usually poorly effective unless the pruritus is principally mediated by histamine, e.g., urticaria, although the sedative action of the first-generation H1 antihistamines may be useful in other cases of chronic pruritus.
- Corticosteroids are not intrinsically antipruritic and are only effective in relieving pruritus occurring as a consequence of inflammatory changes in the skin.
- Narrow band ultraviolet B phototherapy (311 nanometres) is beneficial in generalised itching due to most causes, and is especially useful in pruritus of end-stage renal failure.
- Doxepin, a tricyclic compound, is a non-specific inhibitor of post-synaptic re-uptake of adrenaline and noradrenaline and is a powerful antipruritic, possessing greater potency as an H1 antihistamine than any other available H1 antagonist as well as being widely used as an antidepressant. It should be prescribed in low dosage initially, and be used with extreme caution in patients with liver or cardiovascular disease. It should not be withdrawn abruptly or prescribed concurrently with other antidepressants. It is not contraindicated in the presence of renal failure and is thus very useful in these patients. It is metabolised via the liver cytochrome P450 3A pathway and therefore should not be administered concurrently with macrolide antibiotics or imidazole antifungals.
- Opioid antagonists, including oral naltrexone, are effective in some patients, especially in patients with cholestatic itching. This class of drug is contraindicated in patients with severe liver disease, patients addicted to opioids and patients receiving opioid analgesia. Opioid antagonists seem to cause withdrawal symptoms and signs in patients with itching due to cholestasis and dosage should start low and be increased gradually to avoid this complication.
- Butorphanol, a combined µ-receptor antagonist and κ- receptor agonist, administered as a nasal spray, has showed considerable promise in the management of intractable pruritus. Gabapentin, a structural analogue of γ-amino butyric acid and an anticonvulsant, has been advocated as a potent antipruritic and has received support from at least 1 double blind placebo-controlled trial in haemodialysis patients. Other drugs that can be tried include mirtazepine, a serotonin type 3 receptor antagonist, paroxetine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and thalidomide.
- The sodium channel blocker lidocaine and other local anaesthetics have been reported to cause side effects including itching and/or local hypersensitivity reactions. Other Na channel blockers such as local Novocain has also been reported to cause allergic reactions including itching.
- From Villamil, A. G. et al., The American Journal of Medicine (2005) 118, pages 1160 - 1163 it is known to use lidocaine in the treatment of pruritus in patients with chronic cholestatic liver diseases. For the treatment the lidocaine is administered intravenously.
- From
US 2011/0086899 A1 it is known to use a spiro-oxindole compound for the treatment of pruritus by oral administration. - From Roberson, D. P. et al., Society for Neuroscience, Abstract Viewer and Itinerary Planner, vol. 39, 2009, 39th Annual Meeting of the Society for Neuroscience, Chicago, IL, USA, October 17 to 21, 2009 discloses that TRPV1 mediated delivery of the impermeant sodium channel blocker QX-314 into pruriceptors blocks itch. However, this requires a co-application of a TRPV1 agonist together with QX-314.
- From
WO 2011/098539 A1 the use of the sodium channel blocker saxitoxin and its derivatives for a method of treatment of a reduction or loss of superficial sensitivity or sense of touch is known. This application discloses that superficial sensitivity is so much enhanced by the treatment that the reduced or lost superficial sensitivity or sense of touch is at least partly restored. - From
WO 2010/111777 A1 it is known to use tetrodotoxin galactopyranosides for the treatment of itching. -
CN 1680382 A discloses the use of tetrodotoxin as antipruritic agent. - From Greaves, M. W., Curr. Allergy Asthma Rep. (2010), Vol. 10, pages 236 to 242 transmission of itch by dedicating afferent neurons and a systemic drug treatment of itch are known.
- The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a further substance and a further pharmaceutical composition for use in a method of treatment of itching without a loss of sensitivity in an area innervated by nerves affected by the treatment in a human being or another mammal.
- The problem is solved by the subject-matter of claims 1 and 11. Embodiments of the invention are subject matter of
claims 2 to 10 and 12 to 16. - According to the invention a paralytic shellfish poison (PSP) for use in a method of topical treatment of itching in a human being or another mammal is provided. The PSP is saxitoxin or a tricyclic 3,4-propinoperhydropurine represented by the following formula (I)
- The paralytic shellfish poison may be administered once, over a period of one to seven days, in multiple treatment cycles and/or in chronic treatment.
- The inventors of the present invention have recognized that the PSP according to the invention has an anti-itching effect that differs from the effect of other sodium channel blockers such as lidocaine. Up to now none of the side effects of lidocaine and other non-PSP local anesthetics has been found for PSP. If itching is treated with lidocaine, sensitivity is lost in the area innervated by nerves affected by the treatment. This is not the case if itching is treated with PSP according to the invention in a concentration and an amount that is only sufficient for a reduction or elimination of itching but not sufficient to cause a loss in sensitivity. Such concentration and amount can easily be determined by testing different concentrations and amounts, e.g. by application to skin. The anti-itching effect of the PSP according to the invention is a complete new effect.
-
WO 2011/098539 A1 discloses the same sodium channel blockers as have been recognized by the inventors to be useful for the treatment of itching. However, the sodium channel blockers disclosed inWO 2011/098539 A1 enhance sensitivity of the skin such that a reduced or lost superficial sensitivity or sense of touch is at least partly restored. Enhancing sensitivity would be expected to enhance itching. Therefore, it is very astonishing that these sensitivity enhancing substances can be used to reduce itching. - In an embodiment of the invention either one of R2 and R3 is -OSO3 - or R4 is -OC(=O)NHSO3 -.

It is available in several types such as Poloxamer 231, Poloxamer 182, or Poloxamer 184.
- To design a study where the effects of the PSP toxin on itching can be assessed, the two most commonly used itching models in rats were compared; subcutaneous injections of serotonin or histamine. Such injections have been reported to induce increased scratching in the injected zone.
- The following preparations were used for animal tests:
- a) Serotonin-Solution:
Serotonin hydrochloride 2,5 mg/Kg (Enzo Life Sciences) dissolved in saline (0,9% NaCl). - b) Gel test formulation v1 234:
GTX 2/3 (Cetiol SB-45, Panalene L-14-E, Ceteary Alc -Ceteareth 20, Glucamate SS,Glucamate SSE 20, Propylparaben, Methylparaben, Carbopol 2020, Glycerine, water, Trietanolamine, Silicone DC 345, Microcare PM5, Sepigel 305. - c) 110214 PB GTX:

Composition as described before withGTX 2/3 5, 10 and 20 µg/g of cream. - e) Vehicle: As "d", but without
GTX 2/3 (Placebo). - f)
Lidocaine gel 4%: LidocaineClorhydrate LCH Gel 4% + excipients - Rationale: The objective was to test the effects of the toxin in subcutaneous serotonin (5-HT)-induced itching, which is the most commonly used and effective method to attain itching in rats. As the toxin cream preparation shows only cutaneous effects, we decided to test the effects of the cream preparation on the skin and subcutaneous co-injection of serotonin with the toxin.
- Methods: After acclimation and trimming male rats were divided into 3 groups. The first group was injected subcutaneously with serotonin (50 µl of 5HT (2.5 mg/kg). The second group had the gel test formulation v1 234 applied (between 80-100 mg) to the trimmed region 1 hour before subcutaneous injection of serotonin (same dose as above). The third group was co-injected with a mixture of the toxin (10 µg/kg 110214 PB GTX) and serotonin (2.5 mg/kg in 50 µl). Animal behaviour was measured for 30 minutes since the subcutaneous injections.
- Results: Subcutaneous injection of serotonin in the neck induced an increase in scratches (5HT) which was mildly ameliorated by co-injection of the toxin and serotonin (5HT-toxin). The application of the toxin gel induced a non significant increase in scratches.
- Conclusions: The data suggest that the toxin co-injected subcutaneously with serotonin has an effect in itching.
- Rationale: The objective was to test the effects of the toxin in cutaneous serotonin (5-HT)-induced itching.
- Methods: After acclimation and trimming (see above) male rats had the gel test formulation v1 234 applied (between 80-100 mg) to the trimmed region 1 hour before cutaneous application of serotonin (same dose as above).
- Results: A significant reduction of the scratching behaviour in the animals is observed after cutaneous toxin application.
- Conclusions: GTX in gel induces an over 60% reduction of itching in cutaneous serotonin-induced itching in rats.
- Methods: Male Sprague Dawley rats weighing between 250-300 grams were handled once a day for 5 days. On the test day rats were trimmed on a 2x2 cm region of their right side of the neck. Animals were divided into 6 groups (N=8 each). The first 4 groups were treated cutaneously by rubbing 80-100 mg on the bare skin either with GTX toxin preparations or the vehicle one hour before serotonin application. One group of rats was treated cutaneously with
lidocaine gel 4% (80-100mg) 5 minutes before serotonin application. The last group did not receive any cutaneous treatment. Serotonin (100 µl, 2.5 mg/kg) was applied cutaneously to all animals. Rats were then placed in their individual homecages, and animal behaviour was recorded as the number of scratches within 30 minutes from serotonin application. Two consecutive scratches were considered different if a 1 second interval was present between them. - Results: As can be seen in the figure, the three concentrations of GTX (5, 10 and 20 µg/g of cream) produced significant decreases in serotonin-induced scratching behaviour (over 50% decrease for 20 µg/g cream; p<0.01). Neither the vehicle nor lidocaine gel had significant effects on serotonin-induced pruritus.
- The following cream composition was used for all therapeutic applications described below:
Ingredient Concentration Aqua 70.400 Persea Gratissima Oil 6.000 Propylene Glycol 5.000 Squalane 3.500 Mixture of the epimers GTX-2 and GTX-3 1.000 Petrolatum 3.500 Dimethicone 3.000 PEG-20 Methyl Glucose Sesquistearate 2.500 Cetyl Acetate and Acetylated Lanolin Alcohol 2.000 (total concentration of the mentioned ingredients) Diazolinidyl Urea and Methylparaben and Propylparaben and Propylene Glycol 1.500 (total concentration of the mentioned ingredients) Glyceryl Stearate 1.000 Methyl Glucose Sesquistearate 0.500 Triethanolamine 0.300 Ozokerite 0.300 Carbomer 0.050 Acrylate(s) 0.200 Perfume 0.150 Tocopherol and Ascorbyl Palmitate and Lecithin and Glyceryl Stearate and Glyceryl Oleate and Citric Acid 0.100 - The acrylate(s) may be C 10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer(s).
